Method by which a mixture is separated by distributing its component in a stationary and mobile phase

Fractional Distillation
Any given compound always contains exactly the same proportions of elements by mass.
Law of Definite Proportions/ Law of Constant Compositions/ Proust’s Law
Mass is neither created or destroyed in a chemical reaction (Law)
Law of Conservation of Mass
When two elements form a series of compounds, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with 1 unit of the first element can always be reduced to small whole numbers (Law)
